But if your stride is really long and you are landing on your heal, that might explain the calf problems you are having. A shorter, quicker stride might take some of the pressure off the calf, but now is not the time to tinker with your form. Save that for after the marathon.<BR/><BR/>Great job in the race!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02378547566593756176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868489463872769224.post-70819414929524747842009-04-13T11:52:00.000-05:002009-04-13T11:52:00.000-05:00I feel the pain of flailing guy... ;)Chicked in fr...I feel the pain of flailing guy... ;)Chicked in front of friends and family, way to go!Acehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02308556225686324720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868489463872769224.post-76370361656390985902009-04-13T10:14:00.000-05:002009-04-13T10:14:00.000-05:00Awesome pics!
